A poster for the musical Fiddler on the Roof, based on a short story by Sholem Alecheim [CMA 2008.020.002] and produced by the Gallery Players at the Leo Yassenoff Jewish Center in Columbus, Ohio, January 22 – February 13, 1983. It depicts the main character, Tevye, dancing with his arms up, surrounded by one of his daughters, a cabin, and a donkey. Text carved by the artist reads “Paul Lipson in Fiddler on the Roof,” although the other text was printed by letterpress.
